Download or read book White Collar written by C. Wright Mills and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-09-26 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In print for fifty years, White Collar by C. Wright Mills is considered a standard on the subject of the new middle class in twentieth-century America. This landmark volume demonstrates how the conditions and styles of middle class life--originating from elements of both the newer lower and upper classes--represent modern society as a whole. By examining white-collar life, Mills aimed to learn something about what was becoming more typically "American" than the once-famous Western frontier character. He painted a picture instead of a society that had evolved into a business-based milieu, viewing America instead as a great salesroom, an enormous file, and a new universe of management. Russell Jacoby, author of The End of Utopia and The Last Intellectuals, contributes a new Afterword to this edition, in which he reflects on the impact White Collar had at its original publication and considers what it means to our society today. "A book that persons of every level of the white collar pyramid should read and ponder. It will alert them to their condition for their better salvation."-Horace M. Kaellen, The New York Times (on the first edition)

Book excerpt: White Collar Woman 6: Strictly Business strips every character in the White Collar Woman series and shows the real motive. Whether good or bad, every individual is somehow linked to Marla Evans. Isn't that how life truly is? You have to take the good with the bad. Some manage to take it better than others. As for Marla, her goal is to only go up. Continuing to build on her small business has brought even more to the table. More than most can chew. There are others in the story having a difficult time of balancing the two. Stanley is a perfect example. Every time the accountant attempts to go right, there is always something pulling him back in. In another part of the country his ex-wife, Diane is facing the same challenges. They always knew tough times would come, but not in this manner. A key person that puts the "Strictly" in White Collar Woman 6 is the one and only Gabriel. She is the latest addition to Marla's ever expanding circle. Not only is she about her business, but she has a way of obtaining anything she wants. Anything. Along with her power, comes gorgeous looks. She maintains a perfect light red tan as if she's about to do a bikini photo shoot at any minute. This keeps Gabriel at the top of most men list, but only a select few will ever have a chance because Gabriel is strictly business. This Brazilian bombshell definitely has her good and bad in the corporate realm, but it all depends on what you consider to be good and bad. She has a unique way of blending the two together, but all truth must come to the light. You also get an update on the growing relationship, between Lorenzo and Rhonda. The Italian continues to play his cards right with one of Marla's best friends, Rhonda. That's if Marla doesn't have something to say about it. Until then, Rhonda is enjoying every card in the DECK! Even Jake manages to stay afloat in this sixth installment, after all the issues he had with Wynai in White Collar Woman 5. And out of all people, Angie manages to resurface. Yes, Angie Waters. The drama queen that first made her appearance in White Collar Woman 2 and always wants more than just business. You would think she's learned her lesson by now, but a hard head will always create a soft behind. Somehow, every single one of these individuals play a part in Marla's life and test the challenges of good and bad. In the end, each person is exposed and have to determine whether they mean business or not. Marla Evans has experienced a lot of changes in her life, but little did we know there was more to come. There was unfinished business. WCW 6!
Book Synopsis The Cultural Front by : Michael Denning
Download or read book The Cultural Front written by Michael Denning and published by Verso. This book was released on 1998 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As garment workers, longshoremen, autoworkers, sharecroppers and clerks took to the streets, striking and organizing unions in the midst of the Depression, artists, writers and filmmakers joined the insurgent social movement by creating a cultural front. Disney cartoonists walked picket lines, and Billie Holiday sand 'Strange Fruit' at the left-wing cabaret, Café Society. Duke Ellington produced a radical musical, Jump for Joy, New York garment workers staged the legendary Broadway revue Pins and Needles, and Orson Welles and his Mercury players took their labor operas and anti-fascist Shakespeare to Hollywood and made Citizen Kane. A major reassessment of US cultural history, The Cultural Front is a vivid mural of this extraordinary upheaval which reshaped American culture in the twentieth century.

Download or read book Single Lives written by Katherine Fama and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-13 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the current public fascination with single women, Single Lives traces the relationship between modern and contemporary representations of single women. The original essays collected here analyze a broad range of texts that examine the ways films, cookbooks, archives, popular literature, and other British and American texts express norms, ideals, and challenges for single women and their relationship to dominant ideals of marriage and the family. This volume looks backwards to constellate existing scholarship, constituent fields, and unrecognized single voices and forward to consider new methods for interdisciplinary singles studies.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of White-Collar Crime by : Shanna R. Van Slyke
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of White-Collar Crime written by Shanna R. Van Slyke and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although white-collar crime has caused a substantial amount of damage on both the individual and societal levels, it often ranks below street crime as a matter of public concern. Thus, white-collar crime remains an ambiguous and even controversial topic among academics, with a relative dearth of scholarly focus on the issue. The Oxford Handbook of White-Collar Crime offers a comprehensive treatment of the most up-to-date theories and research regarding white-collar crime. Contributors tackle a vast range of topics, including the impact of white-collar crime, the contexts in which white-collar crime occurs, current crime policies and debates, and examinations of the criminals themselves. The volume concludes with a set of essays that discuss potential responses for controlling white-collar crime, as well as promising new avenues for future research. Uniting conceptual theories, empirical research, and ethnographic data, the Handbook provides the first unified analytic framework on white-collar crime. Given the astronomical aggregate losses to victims, building a more nuanced understanding of the dynamics of white-collar crime is a topic of immediate social concern. The definitive resource on white-collar crime, this Handbook will be a valuable resource for developing both intellectual and policy-related solutions.

Book Synopsis The Extra Woman: How Marjorie Hillis Led a Generation of Women to Live Alone and Like It by : Joanna Scutts
Download or read book The Extra Woman: How Marjorie Hillis Led a Generation of Women to Live Alone and Like It written by Joanna Scutts and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the flapper to The Feminine Mystique, a cultural history of single women in the city through the reclaimed life of glamorous guru Marjorie Hillis. You’ve met the extra woman: she’s sophisticated, she lives comfortably alone, she pursues her passions unabashedly, and—contrary to society’s suspicions—she really is happy. Despite multiple waves of feminist revolution, today’s single woman is still mired in judgment or, worse, pity. But for a brief, exclamatory period in the late 1930s, she was all the rage. A delicious cocktail of cultural history and literary biography, The Extra Woman transports us to the turbulent and transformative years between suffrage and the sixties, when, thanks to the glamorous grit of one Marjorie Hillis, single women boldly claimed and enjoyed their independence. Marjorie Hillis, pragmatic daughter of a Brooklyn preacher, was poised for reinvention when she moved to the big city to start a life of her own. Gone were the days of the flirty flapper; ladies of Depression-era New York embraced a new icon: the independent working woman. Hillis was already a success at Vogue when she published a radical self-help book in 1936: Live Alone and Like It: A Guide for the Extra Woman. With Dorothy Parker–esque wit, she urged spinsters, divorcées, and “old maids” to shed derogatory labels and take control of their lives, and her philosophy became a phenomenon. From the importance of a peignoir to the joy of breakfast in bed (alone), Hillis’s tips made single life desirable and chic. In a style as irresistible as Hillis’s own, Joanna Scutts, a leading cultural critic, explores the revolutionary years following the Live-Alone movement, when the status of these “brazen ladies” peaked and then collapsed. Other innovative lifestyle gurus set similar trends that celebrated guiltless female independence and pleasure: Dorothy Draper’s interior design smash, Decorating Is Fun! transformed apartments; Irma Rombauer’s warm and welcoming recipe book, The Joy of Cooking, reassured the nervous home chef that she, too, was capable of decadent culinary feats. By painting the wider picture, Scutts reveals just how influential Hillis’s career was, spanning decades and numerous best sellers. As she refashioned her message with every life experience, Hillis proved that guts, grace, and perseverance would always be in vogue. With this vibrant examination of a remarkable life and profound feminist philosophy, Joanna Scutts at last reclaims Marjorie Hillis as the original queen of a maligned sisterhood. Channeling Hillis’s charm, The Extra Woman is both a brilliant exposé of women who forged their independent paths before the domestic backlash of the 1950s trapped them behind picket fences, and an illuminating excursion into the joys of fashion, mixology, decorating, and other manifestations of shameless self-love.
